Einleitung
Use this guide to replace the keyboard on your Acer Chromebook C720-2827. The keyboard is essentially built into the case, so you aren’t as much removing the keyboard as disassembling your computer and reassembling it around a new keyboard. This guide will require removal of all components, so strap in for a ride.
